Cuz I don't have enough time wasters in my life

Hi all! I'm Katie, a 23-year-old programmer and life-long nerd. I can't promise there will be anything interesting on here, unless it's me reblogging funny things from others.

They’re all red and green!

Christmas Skittles are nothing more than a handful of disappointment.

You pick up a red one thinking, “Yes! This will be a delicious strawberry Skittle, the king of Skittles!” and you joyfully pop it in your mouth, expecting sweet, wonderful berry goodness.

And then it’s fuckin’ grape flavor.

A week has gone by and they’re still not training me yet

My job is so boring and completely lacking in ANYTHING to do that today I literally started praying that the Doctor would suddenly appear in my office and whisk me away to go gallivanting throughout time and space.

I trust all my technologies except this one.

“Okay, my trusty Garmin, help me get home!”

“In point three miles, turn left.”

“Ugh, no, are you crazy? I hate that street. We’re going this way, Garmin. Geez, c’mon. Try to keep up.”

She raises a valid point

  • Roomie: "Whenever I miss your Katie craziness I will be sure to call you."
  • Me: "No! Only texting. If you call me I won't answer."
  • Roomie: "But how do you know it won't be about something serious? What if I'm like, 'Katie! Help! I'm dying!'"
  • Me: "You should be calling your parents if you're dying!"
  • Roomie: "Well what if it's like, 'Katie! Help! I'm in a life-or-death situation that I need your expertise on because you spend so much time on the internet!'"

For some reason I always thought snowflakes were only traditional snowflake shaped under a microscope. Like, the actual flakes were very tiny, and the big fluffly bits we see falling are clumps of dozens of them.

My mother is a ninja

One of these days she’s gonna pop up behind me as I’m scrolling past superheros making out or something, and we’re going to have the most awkward conversation-turned-argument in the world.

Tags: not over-exaggerating at all I want my own place I can't move out til March though she won't let me see how whipped I am? I'm pathetic She could at least teach me some of her awesome ninja skillz while I'm here

Katie Fails at Social Interactions: Part 3

Awkward things to say within earshot of people who have grandchildren:

“Yeah, I’m 23 today! I can’t believe it. I’m getting so old!”

Things I wish I could say

“Sorry Boss, I can’t meet up to tour my future workplace right now. See, the season 5 finale of Supernatural is on rerun and I don’t wanna miss it.”
